Vinegar tips - Strip wax from linoleum and vinyl floors with vinegar

Strip wax from linoleum and vinyl floors with vinegar

Do you see flakes of wax from your linoleum or vinyl flooring when you are sweeping it? This means it is time for a deep cleaning. Or, maybe your white linoleum or vinyl floor has a yellow colour to it, then this means it could be time to strip the wax from your floor leaving a clean shine.

Remove wax from your linoleum or vinyl flooring using vinegar and a scrub brush with just a cup of cream of tartar added to your water.

For regular cleaning and to keep your wax build up to a minimum, use one cup of vinegar, one cup of amonia and a gallon of water. Mopping your floor with this mixture will keep the wax build up to a minimum. This mixture also works to keep wax off of tile floors.
